Yes thats a very good way of doing it, but you could miss the electrox for red oxide for a cheaper option but if your planning on keeping it I think its worth it

As Im using the electrox they advised me to have clean metal and not have it treated other wise the zinc wont be a sacraficial layer as it isnt touching the metal. Ive used vactan which is pretty much the same as hydrate 80. If your not using the zinc primer or understand that it wont be doing the job of a zinc primer but just a primer on the treated spots you should be fine. Im going to use surfex hd first to clean it but once Ive cleaned it back I dont want to put water near it as I dont want to lock moisture in. I quick key then some white spirit. Surfex is better in 5l as it isnt diluted and you can mix it to your own strength. Thats pretty much my plan but I might paint my springs, shocks and any arms sticking out the car. I would also do the wheel arches and when you open the bonnet under neith the airbox is like a ledge thing Im going to put some dynax s50 though.

Well they are still to go on so Im not sure. TBH i bet there is nothing in it.

A few other bushes if you can afford the super pro ones?

Just a suggestion but what about a 2jz I know they are heavy but they are powerful and realiable. Also a few people have converted them so there is more info around. I'm not sure about this but was told to hey power from the rb26 you still needed deep pockets. This is 400bhp plus. Can you confirm or deny this

I'm planning on doing it myself but haven't got round to it yet. Bilt hamber says make sure the surface is rust free to begin with for the electrox or 5-10% rusty if your going with dynax ub. I've got some deox gel a wire brush and vactan if need be too. That should clean it. Rinse with white spirit then brush on electrox. 2 layers should do it then I could brush or spray dynax ub but you need at least 2 coats. For hard to reach areas I've got some dynax s50 spray. That's like waxoyl but better supposedly. I was going to cheap out but i though why not do this properly as it's piece of mind and it's a point when it comes to selling. On my 172 I was justinh going to clean it, red oxide then dynax ub but as I have 2 cars bulk worked out eaiser and will be a better product. Although on stuff I painted before is resisting rust with red oxide and paint so it can work. Pros of a place doing it is it's ment to be super messy, you don't have to do anywork and they might have specialist tools to do it. Cons expensive, they don't keep up to date with modern rust proofing. They won't clean it and so on as it's time consuming. They might not do as good job as you. If you use your own stuff and they apply it wrong they will blame the supplied stuff.

Waxoyl is old school and isn't regarded as good any more. I'm going to be using electrox then dynax ub. Waxoyl can actually retain moisture and salt but it is self healing. It doesn't stop rust though and some people have removed it to find it's rotten underneath. You could go with something like stonechip or dynax ub which is rubberised to give it flex. I'm using electrox aswell as it's s zinc based primer which will actively stop rust forming. Also you need to treat any rust that is there first.

Much perfer the music, dubstep is abit more neutral but really suits the video. Expensive euro cars make that evo and skyline sound rubbish

NeilP has a scorpion going im sure

I think Lum used them too and nicad7 maybe

But then people wouldnt know who your talking to about what. If I did that sentence without the qoute that could apply to Riceys post

I use my iPhone and the forum isn't the best to use on mobile safari

Yes that's what I ment with the sigma even of both where at f2 the sigma has better bokeh it's a nicer shape more smooth.

Yep that's why it breaks they say ok your bike.

Didnt think you could measure bokeh? Isnt bokeh the quality of the blurred areas? If so how do you measure it and have more? Yes, bokeh is the blurry background. A low f number will give you some bokeh and a larger sensor. Also bokeh changes lens to lens. A nifty fifty gives you decent bokeh but a sigma 50 f1.4 gives you some amazing bokeh

+1. None of us said anything bad about him or anything. Both me and more so Neil have experience of what money will get you with these cars so I honestly think our opinions are valid. If he is being funny about it clear the thread up it's not banter it was advice. If he doesn't want to follow it fine he loss not mine. I never gave a sarky comment about not being able to use the forum Properly. I'm done He should have apologised to the people he was rude too, not the team

Maybe I didn't post it? Basically if you are offended that I only wanted to help but fair enough. He should just block me but continue to use the forum as without it he can't do anything or know anything. Buying guides, zeds for sale , parts from Lee, Alex,Jez and Mitz. Tuning advice from abbey and so on. Trying to get 360bhp without forum help will be more expensive and time consuming. Still don't get why he got so worked up?

I was being nice and my post got deleted?

Always hating on the z! +1 I've had no issues on track against m3's and passed plenty as they're very heavy also. A bit of work puts the zed way ahead of competitors as its a very well balanced car to drive. A standard zed is very disappointing and soggy and just boring. Spend 3-4k on engine mods and suspension and you will break the 300bhp barrier and have a good all rounder. I've went crazy dropping lots of weight out of mines but it's now costing mega bucks. I'm hoping to drop over 100kg and I will be running 400hp with nos so it should be good fun to drive and much quicker and better handling as the Center of gravity will be lower and top end body weight will be reduced massively. In terms of making 360bhp you'll be around the 10k mark probably including suspension and a charger The m3 has between 40 and 60 more bhp though. In real life it doesn't make a difference. On track the last time I was there, an m3 was on and I passed him on the straight, also a fezza 355, vids are on YouTube. Alot of it is to do with the driver also so remember that. In a drag race with my bro's 911 c4s I was evenly matched to about 135 and then it pushed on ever so slightly. I know i can push harder than a standard m3 through corners, my speed is faster out the corner. I didn't spend so much money on suspension for no reason. As said a standard zed is pretty soggy and boring. On track I was evenly matched with a 370z although the extra torque it had was noticeable coming out a corner, on the straights I caught back up easily. Im talking like for like standard and standard and the same driver ideally. Obviously driver, tyres and mods will make a different. Im just saying the zed doesnt fit his need IMO but drive one you might love it.

Always hating on the z! Look past your orange dials for once . I love my zed i really do but it isnt the fasting thing out there. come to terms with it alot of cars will beat you. Thats not what I got my zed for so im happy. Why give the guy biased crappy advice? Are you saying your car is faster than a boxster S or m3?

If your cupra is remapped which it should be it will be faster than a zed. The zed isnt fast. The m3 and boxster S are much quicker. I think test drive one but you will be dissapointed.

No. I use them

not much bokeh
